Minecraft dyes: how to get them and what you can dye

There are 16 dyes, one per color. Most are crafted from flowers and a few other items, several come from mixing two dyes, green and lime are smelted in a furnace, and purple is the only one that can only come from mixing other dyes. The wandering trader sells three of any color for one emerald.

They dye a huge range of things: wool, carpets, cushions, terracotta, concrete powder, glass, shulker boxes, beds, candles, bundles, harnesses, banners, firework stars, sheep and sign text. In Java they dye leather armor directly; in Bedrock, through water in a cauldron.

In Bedrock, bone meal, ink sacs, lapis lazuli and cocoa beans can stand in for white, black, blue and brown dye in any recipe. Compound colors such as magenta can also be made from primary colors there.

Dyeing a sheep is the most efficient way to get colored wool, since every time you shear it the wool comes back in that color without spending more dye.

On thumbnails, strongly dyed blocks like concrete or wool make single-color backgrounds that help the character pop.
